OP, I don't find these very similar. In fact, am not confused at all by any of these except the Olsen twins. Ashley, obviously looks different.

I remember back in the late '90s I used to confuse Renée Zellweger, Joey Lauren Adams, and Jewel.

It didn't help that all three became famous within a year of each other (c. 1996-1997)

And look at their respective fame levels today. Such a fleeting thing, better to not have had it at all etc.

Will smell you Debbie Downer @R4. Sometimes the confusion is not necessarily with distinguishing looks, but with their names

by Anonymousreply 11June 6, 2023 7:18 PM

I don't have any problem telling most of these pairings apart except Mulroney and Mcdermott.

It's the younger "actresses" I can't differentiate. They aren't famous or accomplished enough to stand out as individuals. They just blur together into one gigantic homecoming queen.

I agree with r11. It's not that they necessarily "look" the same so much as seem the same.

There are a bunch of people who are somewhat interchangeable in my mind - such as Dermot Mulroney and Dylan McDermott (having nothing to do with their names). To me, they are the same blandly handsome white guys.
